Pumpkin Swing

DescriptionA challenging physics-based game with unique mechanics about none other than swinging pumpkins. Guide the pumpkin to the ending candle with the vines located in each level. Collect candy along the way to unlock pumpkin customizations.InstructionsGameplay:
Press any button to start
Use ABX & Y to make vines
Use the circle pad to swing
Editor:
Draw and drag with the touchscreen
Use the d-pad to select the tools
Use the circle pad to scroll the level
Hold L to erase
Drag the yellow boxes to resize the level
Press A to play
Press B to leaveNotesHow in the world did I get this done!? Also, please don't try to read the code. It's incredibly sloppy at times.
Hold down L and R while tapping on "New Game". This will activate no candy mode. Every level can be beaten without collecting a single piece of candy. I have no clue why I added this.

I love the use of the additive sprites for the jack-o-lantern effect, and the physics are very impressive, and they're of a quality I didn't expect in a SmileBASIC game.
My only nitpicks are some slight polish to the menus and feel. When I tap another level on the level select while the screen is fading, the level shouldn't be pressed down. When the screen is transitioning to the next level and I missed some candy, I often try to click the Retry button as it fades out, but it only moves on to the next level. Finally, I feel like the bat sliding down -> actual control cooldown is a bit too long, especially after retrying a level for the 20th time just to get that single candy in the corner.

I just checked every level to see if each one could be beaten without using the circle pad and the only level that, as far as I know, can't be beaten is 3-3.SimeonScholarReceived for knowing a great deal about programming topicsAchievementsAmazing PageHiddenAchievementsDrawingI like to draw!HobbiesEdited 5 months agoClever game mechanics. Attention to detail. Consistent code. The difficulty seems reasonable. Honestly this is a masterpiece. Your coding style (specifically naming scheme) is very clear and easy to read, and I think there's a lot we can learn from your style.
You should consider making tutorials to show some of your tricks to designing games!

I just played through the entire game, and I have to say, the last level was the hardest one of them all (just kidding, lol). This game was really well designed, especially for a game made in just a month. Seriously, this is really impressive work, and the game itself is very enjoyable. I didn’t really find the levels that difficult, although they did prove to be challenging.
The editor is also very user-friendly, I like how it tells you what items are needed for a level to be possible, rather than just letting the player find out for themselves after they’ve already saved it. I can’t wait to see what levels people create with it!
All in all, this is an amazing game. You have my vote!random_godIntermediate ProgrammerI can make programs, but I still have trouble here and there.

Contest WinnerI won the (possibly) final SmileBASIC Source Contest! October 2018Programming ContestEdited 5 months agoA) I only gave myself a day and a half for level design so it was hard to get the difficulty curve right.
B) The editor is meant to be unlocked after beating the game for the first time. (I should probably change the crash to a note to the player)
I'll try to fix both of these problems before the end of the contest.
